Liz Cheney: The U.S. Is 'Sleepwalking Into Dictatorship'

Trump has "told us what he will do," the Republican former congresswoman said

“People who say ‘Well, if he’s elected, it’s not that dangerous because we have all of these checks and balances’ don’t fully understand the extent to which the Republicans in Congress today have been co-opted. … One of the things that we see happening today is a sort of a sleepwalking into dictatorship in the United States.”

@GW The Checks and Balances will go out the window with his DOJ and Civil Service cronies.

You are so right, The House is already in his pocket and SCOTUS goes wherever the money tells them to go.

@DrBonesMD

Man no matter how many times I block this Reich dude his stupidity somehow keeps making it to my feed...

Not taxing someone, regardless of if you agree with it or not, is **not** the same as "billions in tax giveaways", just saying it in such an obviously incorrect way makes it really hard to take this guy seriously, its the norm for him too.

@GW

@freemo @GW So reducing taxes by billions on someone is not a "tax giveaway"??? Explain this to me like I'm 5.

@DrBonesMD

Sure, its simple, you cant call something a "giveaway" when you are simply choosing not to take something of theirs.

If i am giving something away it implies it is mine to give, not that I could take soemthing that is yours and dont.

@GW

@DrBonesMD

To illustrate your point im going to go around to homeless people and aim a gun at them and go "Give me a million dollars, actually nevermind you can keep it as a giveaway" then go home... then we can all praise me for giving million dollar giveaways to the homeless.

@GW

@freemo @DrBonesMD @GW You could always get them good gear and have a private militia. Start your own security contactor company and they would have jobs, money and belong to something greater.

@AmpBenzScientist

Im all for handing out free guns to the homeless... not sure it will solve any problems but it will certainly piss off the liberals, and that alone is worth it :)

@DrBonesMD @GW

@freemo @DrBonesMD @GW It would solve police brutality against the homeless and remind people that firearms make everyone equal.

@freemo @DrBonesMD @GW Just as soon as I can get a drug habit that makes me useless for anything else.
